Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

I second the recommendation for TP-Link running OpenWRT (that's the important part).
I've been using a few Archer C7s for going on a decade at this point. (So long that they went from "OpenWRT" to "LEDE" to back to "OpenWRT", LOL!) They've been working fine that whole time, and the only thing that annoys me about them is that they're a funny shape instead of being rack-mountable.
Beware! Now there’s a hardware revision for a TP-Link router (I think the C7) that is not supported by OpenWrt and never will
we were looking awhile back for one, but none of the tplink models at walmart (the only retailer with routers within 50 miles) supported flashing with a third-party firmware and i didn't want to shop online for one.
we sorta lucked-out, though.. ended up just using the one from our old provider since they never asked for it back or charged us for it. it's dual band, has wpa3, guest ssid and vlan. enough for us for now. all we had to do is flip a setting from dsl uplink to wan uplink.
